2020 Map of Colton

About this map

The high-country terrain of the Wasatch Plateau defines this landscape, where the settlement of Colton sits at the junction of Spring Canyon and Woods Canyon. This region is a critical hydrological divide, marked by the headwaters of the White River flowing northward while the Price River and Beaver Cr drain to the south. The map reveals a complex network of ridgelines and drainage basins, including Joes Ridge and Wide Ridge, which separate deep incisions like Long Canyon and Miller Canyon. Numerous water sources such as Wing Spring and Sawmill Spring dot the higher elevations of Dry Valley. A distinct series of roads with spiritual and functional names, including Revelation Rd, Salvation Rd, and Church Property Rd, suggests a specific history of land use and property ownership across the Utah County and Carbon County line.
